eventfs: Remove "lookup" parameter from create_dir/file_dentry()

The "lookup" parameter is a way to differentiate the call to
create_file/dir_dentry() from when it's just a lookup (no need to up the
dentry refcount) and accessed via a readdir (need to up the refcount).

But reality, it just makes the code more complex. Just up the refcount and
let the caller decide to dput() the result or not.
